Holiday 2012 Dining Room-Simply Elegant

Welcome to our Holiday Dining Room 2012! If you would like to see our dining room last year you can clickhere. There was a big change in the space this past year. I purchased a french hutch to make over and sold our buffet.

With the new hutch came new ideas for decorating it. I purchased this cloche set back in November and I could not wait to use it.

I used a lot of fresh greenery and gold jingle bells.

I wanted to keep things simply stated in here.

This beautiful wreath came from Lowes and the two faux cypress trees came from a shop back in Ga.

I just love our french hutch in here.

Next up I created another simple display for the table top. You can see here how I made this angel centerpiece.

I just love her chippy goodness.

I added a little fresh greenery and jingle bells to my everyday topiaries.

I then of course had to pull out one of my gold frames to add to the mix. I am such a sucker for vintage gold frames.

The large gold frame that is above the hutch use to hang here. I had plans of turning it into a chalk board but have not had the time. Then I decided it looked fab above the hutch for now so I pulled out my small collection of Federal Mirrors to display on this wall so it would not be bare.

I wanted to keep the color scheme of the space intact with the holiday decor and I am so glad I did. Everything flows so nicely together.This room makes me smile every time I walk by it.

Pamela, It all looks outstanding!!! Your new hutch is looking wonderful with all your Christmas decor. I just gotta ask...is that huge god frame plastic? If so, I have her twin...yes...my huge chalkboard was a gold fame that looks a lot like yours.

Gorgeous, Pamela! I'd love to enjoy a fabulous holiday meal in here. Your cloches are awesome, and you dressed them beautifully. Your chippy goodness angel is wonderful, as is the centerpiece you created around her. And, your splashes of greenery are the perfect addition!
